I have three but can see no more after that.

Thanks. I might divert slightly to do 3 if I had other jobs but wouldnt go just for them. I think it would be better for us, and RE, if they told us the limits before we apply. Thats what I said in my message to them.

If I can plan a viable circuit then I will travel further. Need to know how many jobs I can apply for to be able to do that.

Not sure if this has been mentioned in the thread before, but http://downforeveryoneorjustme.com/ is a great site for finding out whether sites are down for everyone or not. Thought I'd post as people often ask about the various MS sites.

I'm not 100% sure if you can pick 3 from the same time period tho - maybe someone else can confirm this?

I seem to recall that RE specified their limits on chemist jobs in the last wave (so many per day and possibly so many overall). I think this may have been in the "assignment notes". I don't see why they can't do this for every client that has limits; we have to open the notes anyway before accepting an assignment.

Exactly. Makes it easier for us to work out what we're doing. Gives them better coverage if we decide to go 20 miles further to Jobtown because we know there's 4 jobs there.

This is a great tool and really works!

You could be right, i wouldnt be surprised. But I dont see anything in the notes and thats exactly what they should be making clear. I can see a group of 6/7 bookies that I might consider nipping round in an afternoon. But they're a bit out of the way. I wouldnt go for a couple of them.

Mind, I'm only using the bookies as an example. The visits are fine, the questionnaires not so fine.
